Description

ATP-binding cassette, sub-family B member 4

Gene Summary

Predicted to enable ATPase-coupled transmembrane transporter activity and phosphatidylcholine floppase activity. Involved in bile acid secretion and response to fenofibrate. Located in intercellular canaliculus and plasma membrane. Is expressed in alimentary system and liver. Used to study cholecystitis; cholestasis; hepatocellular carcinoma; intrahepatic cholestasis; and primary sclerosing cholangitis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cholestasis (multiple) and liver cirrhosis (multiple). Orthologous to human ABCB4 (ATP binding cassette subfamily B member 4).
